1 | 3 | ABLE DEED (V136) | D Whyte | CP | Jumped well, shared pace before pulling a half length ahead passing 1200m. Quickened pace turning for home and kept finding more when strongly challenged up the straight. |
2 | 2 | UNIQUE HAPPIEST (S245) | K K Chiong | E-/H2 | Quickly into stride, shared pace before easing a half length behind and outside leader. Shaken up to challenge on straightening but unable close gap on winner. |
3 | 11 | SUPERNATURAL (V063) | C Y Ho | CP/TT | A little slow to muster, scrubbed up along fence to sit 2L behind leader passing 1200m. Came off rail 400m to challenge but unable to make ground on first two. |

8 | 6 | HIT A HOME RUN (N248) | J Moreira | B | Bumped from behind shortly after jump and unbalanced. Shifted in, three-wide at rear. Swung widest into straight and boxed on one-paced under hard riding. |

11 | 12 | EQUITY DOCTRINE (T329) | M Chadwick | TT | Began well, pressed forward behind leading pair, then taken 3-wide outside leaders passing 1200m. Started to give ground around home turn and plodded home in straight. |
12 | 4 | HEALTH WISE (P219) | Y T Cheng | B | Hampered at start, ridden forward between horses settling behind midfield. Lost position passing 1200m, shuffled back passing 600m, struggled on to 200m before dropping out. Unacceptable performance. |
